Daily Signet

Human beings are not totally stupid. No matter how much we bomb and murder to destroy it, religion lives and has lived, certainly since we find red ochre used as the sign of eternal life tens of thousands of years ago…since the carving of fertility virgins, or the vision of the Holy Spirit, since the dance of Shiva began, since it was declared: “There is but one God and His name is Allah, Eloi, Brahm, the Tao, Life.” All is mystery and to recognize mystery is simply to recognize your stupidity, your ignorance, your ego—and above all, that you are alive and something is still expected of you.
